Islamabad, Oct 03: Pakistan successfully test fired a medium-range nuclear-capable missile early today, a defense ministry official said. The Hatf-III reportedly has a range of 290 kilometers and can carry conventional and non-conventional weapons.
``It was a successful test,'' claimed the defence ministry official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. The test came with Prime Minister Zafarullah Khan Jamali in the middle of a visit to the United States, and days after he met with US President George W. Bush. Pakistan's last missile test was on March 26. Bureau Report
